Devon based wire sculptor Victoria Westaway was commissioned by Stoke Gifford Parish Council in South Gloucestershire to create a celebratory Running Man Sculpture. Now named 'Momentum' by local school girl Meredith Runmey, this wire sculpture is sited in Little Stoke Park near Bristol and takes the form of a Running Man, commissioned by the council to celebrate the 1st Anniversary of the Little Stoke Parkrun.
